Nick Saban and defending national champion Alabama may be No. 1 in both the opening Associated Press and USA Today polls, but they aren’t the betting line favorite to host the crystal football at the end of the season.

Instead, that honor goes to Ohio State, which is listed as the 9-2 favorite to win the BCS national title by the Las Vegas Hilton. Alabama comes in second at 5-1, followed by Oklahoma (6-1), Florida (7-1) and Boise State.
